Cm                                D#
I guess we guess our way through life
Cm                     G#    A#       Cm 
How many times do we really know for sure
Cm                         D#
I was just hoping for the best
Cm                       G#     A#      G# 
Then I woke up in those lovin' arms of yours
G#          A#                G#             A#    
What I felt was unmistakable When I feel for you
CHORUS:
        D#           Cm          G#         
It was real It was magic It was calm It was savage
        D#                      Cm
It was cool as a breeze It was warm to the touch
         G#      
It was never enough It was always too much
   Cm                       G#                A#      D# 
It did all the things love does That's how I knew It was


Cm                                 D#
Who thought that I could laugh so loud
Cm                    G#     A#   Cm  
Then turn around and cry so many tears
Cm                       D#
I used to have so many doubts
Cm                  G#        A#    G#
But one by one you made them disap-pear
G#           A#               G#                  A#        
What I found was unbelievable But I believe it's true

Go to chorus, to bridge

BRIDGE:

A#
You ask what I felt when you walked through the door
A#
Was it fear? Was it clear? It was all that and more

Go to chorus, to ending

ENDING:
